Jason Day hopes to build on his PGA Tour comeback by winning additional majors

Former world number one Jason Day, aged 37, expressed on Wednesday that his recent revival has ignited a passion within him to pursue a second major championship in 2025, a decade after he broke through at the PGA Championship.

Between 2015 and 2016, Day secured seven titles on the PGA Tour in just 17 events, leading some to speculate that he could be the next Tiger Woods.

However, since his initial major victory at Whistling Straits in 2015, he has struggled to replicate that success in golf's premier tournaments, largely due to persistent back injuries that have hindered his performance.

In 2023, the Australian experienced a resurgence, attributed to swing modifications aimed at alleviating stress on his lower back.

He achieved his 13th PGA Tour victory and finished tied for second at last year's Open Championship held at Royal Liverpool.

This year, he has recorded four top-10 finishes on the PGA Tour and stated at Royal Queensland in Brisbane, prior to the Australian PGA Championship: "I feel confident in my game.

"My objective for 2025 is to secure a major title, along with the ambition to win an elevated PGA Tour event.

"My overarching goal has always been to win all four majors. I am certain that I possess the skills necessary to achieve this.

"It is primarily about maintaining my health and ensuring that my swing and technique are up to par," he continued.

"I am confident that on my best days, I am the top putter globally, and my short game is exceptional.

"I simply need my ball striking to align with that. If I can accomplish this, I am confident I can contend for more majors beyond my initial victory."
